Hi, this is the second time I post this message and this time as a separate thread. Hope to get some response for a change. I've read nearly all posts around MicrosoftTechNet forums as well as some others regarding problems with starting Health Service (OpsMgr Health Service) and found no answer formy case. I've installed SCE 2007 on Windows Server 2003 Standard CZ (czech localized) R2 and stumbled upon the following error whenever I tried to configure "Computers and devices to manage": Date: 17.11.2007 18:53:54Application: System Center EssentialsApplication Version: 6.0.1251.1Severity: ErrorMessage: Microsoft.EnterpriseManagement.Common.LocationMonitoringObjectNotAvailableException: Health Service 'vapo_nt.COMPANY.local' in which the location monitoring object is contained is not available.

Event Type: WarningEvent Source: OpsMgr Config ServiceEvent Category: NoneEvent ID: 29104Date:17.11.2007Time: 18:55:37User: N/AComputer: VAPO_NTDescription:OpsMgr Config Service failed to send the dirty state notifications to the dirty OpsMgr Health Services. This may be happening because the Root OpsMgr Health Service is not running. I used created Action_Account, which is a member of Domain Users and Local Administrators, as an administration account during the installation of SCE. Now, all OpsMgr services (OpsMgr Health, OpsMgr Config, OpsMgr SDK) are using LocalSystem to log on, in the administration space of SCE console in Run As Accounts - Local System Action Account is set to UserName: LocalSystem and Domain: NT Authority and there's obviously no way of making any changes to that, so I assume it's correct.I've tried to restart OpsMgr Health Service several times and all in vain. I'm ready to provide any sort of information in order to fix this, as I ran out of ideas on how to proceed. Please, HELP!!!!

Hi, The source of these two eventsare the OpsMgr Health Service, which cannot locate the root cause. Issue that Health Service on OpsMgr Server can not start may has a lot possibilities cause. Lets try the below steps one by one to try to fix this issue. #1. Please delete the files under folder \..\System Center Essentials 2007\Health Service State\Health Service Store and then try to start the health service. Note: Please make a backup before deleting these files. #2. Try touninstall the application LogMeIn and restart the server, and then observe the Health Service again. #3. Let's perform a Clean Boot. A Clean Boot will allow us to isolate any device drivers or programs that are loading at startup that may be causing a conflict with other device drivers or programs that are installed in your computer. 1) Run MSCONFIG.EXE. (MSCONFIG is a built-in tool for Windows XP\2003 systems.) 2) In the Services tab, click "Hide All Microsoft Services" and click "Disable All". 3) In the Startup tab, click "Disable All". Click OK. (This will temporarily prevent third-party programs from running automatically during start-up.) 4) Restart the computer. If the problem does not occur, it indicates that the problem is related to one application or service we have disabled. You can use the MSCONFIG tool again to re-enable the disabled item one by one to find out the culprit. #4. To check whether SQL Server Broker Service has started. The SQL Server Broker Service can be checked with the following query.1. Open SQL Management Studio 2. select New Query3. Type: SELECT is_broker_enabled FROM sys.databases WHERE name = 'OperationsManager'4. Execute the query.If the results return a 0 then the Broker Service is disabled. To enable the service execute the following: 1. Stop all of the Ops Manager services on the RMS and other management servers.Note: if you don't stop the services before you run the query it executes forever (hangs).2. Open a new query in SQL management studio and type the following: ALTER DATABASE OperationsManager SET ENABLE_BROKER3. Restart the Ops Manager services.Now run the original query again and you should see a 1 telling you the service is enabled. Also please check the RAM for the SCE server. We recommend to install SCE on computers with 2G RAM. If all above do not help then please save event log (including application log, system log, OpsMgr log) as *.evt files and send to SCEDATA@MICROSOFT.COM Note: Please include the following three lines in the email body: OpsMgr Health Service startup problem!!! http://forums.microsoft.com/TechNet/ShowPost.aspx?postid=2427178&siteid=17 Xiu Zhang - MSFT Regarding more information about how to send email to SCEDATA@microsoft.com, please refer to: How to send files to the Microsoft SCE team for review http://forums.microsoft.com/TechNet/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1680389&SiteID=17 Also, please post a quick note in the current thread to inform me after sending the email.

I had a very similar issue and Live Searched my symptom. Found this post and yes Removing Logmein Free solved the issue. I use logmein Free in my lab and on some Betas so I can get to the lab from anywhere.

Hi there! Deleting the files under folder \..\System Center Essentials 2007\Health Service State\Health Service Store and then try to start the health service did the job. Thanks!!!

Was your post supposed to be an illustration of english as a second language? Could you please proof read your posts in the future, the grammatical errors made your post unclear and confusing.
